Partner Agencies

By partnering with the United Way, you focus on solutions that give individuals and families a new outlook on life. Our 35 partner agencies and one initiative, through 58 United Way supported programs, change people's lives for the better.

The hungry are fed. The abused are sheltered. Children develop social values. People get the care and education they need in order to lead more healthy and productive lives.
